No one will break that record, you can't throw out four base stealers in a single inning.

.

If the throw is in time and the infielder drops the tag for an error, the catcher still gets an assist and a caught stealing. He could have four that way.

10.08(f) When in the scorer's judgment a runner attempting to steal is safe because of a muffed throw, do not credit a stolen base. Credit an assist to the fielder who made the throw; charge an error to the fielder who muffed the throw, and charge the runner with "caught stealing."

It doesn't say the catcher is credited with a caught stealing, it says he is credited with an assist and the runner is charged with a caught stealing.

I do not know if he is or isn't credited, but the above rule does not clarify the matter.

Philadelphia Phillies losing streak????

Climactic. They have 98 wins and six games to win 3 and set a Philly record. I recall the game Halladay Pitched when they needed it to clinch and how it was a 1-0 nail biter. Maybe the Phillies love drama and will wait until there are 3 games left and make a run for the gold. Anyway a team of this talent and depth sure know how to make it interesting. Maybe that's why I love these guys.

Maybe they're planning to set a record that will be easier to break again next year.

By winning # 98, Philadelphia has sustained a remarkable run of improving their win total every year for five consecutive seasons. They don't want to go crazy and win so many this year that it will be close to impossible to keep the streak alive in '12. They should take a dive on their remaining games, settle for the 98 wins and that way will only have to reach 99 next season.
